I don't have a car yet, but I don't absolutely have to have the ls1/tranny swap. If I had a 350 with an auto, I could live with that, but I definitely want to upgrade the entire suspension, brakes and wheels. The interior I could live with, just have it re-upholstered. I think that could be done for $40k with the cost of the car. Agree?

I do wish you luck though, just seems like it's $25K+ just to re-do a car stock, not counting the cost of the car. Then again, the condition of the car has a lot to do with it. If the car doesn't need restoring, just changing it could be done. But when you figure replacing all the pieces on the car, body/paint, then adding all the upgrades it gets ugly quick.
